I am reading it now. I am about halfway through. It is quite the page turner.
I bought it after reading this post a few weeks ago, inspired by my recent trip to Prague. It adds to my enjoyment that I can picture exactly where most of these events take place.

Towards the end of the book (page602) a scene takes place at our hotel, the Hotel Augustine. Brown calls it a former 13th century monastery but it fact it is still a working monastery with a few monks still living there. Part of the complex was turned over to Marriott which converted it into a luxury hotel.

Bump- I'll finish it today when I go home for lunch. I thought it was really good, and a little scary to think that even some of the research might be true.
This is my favorite part of his books, actually
When I'm fixing to put it down and I look and see the next chapter is only 3 pages, I'll keep reading
I stumbled on this website while I was googling what a chengbaobaby was. Langdon's World
I bought the illustrated versions of DaVinci Code and Angels & Demons and have been disappointed that his other books did not come with that option. I've had this website open on my phone since Chapter 3.

I'll also add that after reading other authors, Brown's ridiculous 3 page chapters are infuriating when jumping back into his writing. I'm pretty sure you get past chapter 40 before you even hit page 100. It's just infuriating to read a book like that, imo.

Thanks for sharing that. I love to look up the different locations and those kind of things during those books. I need to read Origins before I get into the newest but I'll bookmark it for later.
